i'd heard of her for a while, i'd hear Standing Still and Intuition on the radio, but i had no idea they were by the same person =/.
my dad knew a lady at his work who was in a band, and she gave him a tape recording of them playing - one song was a cover of down so long. my dad asked her who sang it originally, and she told him Jewel, so he went to the library and rented out Spirit.
my mother knew he liked Jewel, so for christmas she tried to get him Spirit, but the store she went to didn't have any, so instead she got Pieces of You.
then the next christmas, after i had listened to POY numerous times in my dad's car, i asked for This Way for christmas, since i liked Standing Still best out of all her songs.
aaaaaaaaaannd then i went out and bought like all her cds.
